Desmond Come Home
A song made by Victor
Desmond Come Home
A song made by Victor
(Talking drum rhythm fades in)
Oya, let the music play
Desmond, my boy, this one for you
Listen now
Today is your day, my son, you turn another year older
Even if the distance feels heavy on my shoulder
I know they try to fill your head with so many lies
But look deep inside, you can see the truth in my eyes
They took you away, tried to build a wall of stone
But I want you to know, you are never truly alone
Desmond, my son, my blood, my heart
They try to pull us worlds apart
But my door is open, any time, any day
Don't let them wash your brain, don't walk away
Come back home, where your spirit can be free
Desmond, you will always be a part of me
Your maternal home, yeah, it might offer you space
But this is your root, this is your rightful place
Don't let the bitterness cloud what you see
My love is constant, for all eternity
No matter the distance, no matter the fight
I am here waiting, keeping the future bright
Desmond, my son, my blood, my heart
They try to pull us worlds apart
But my door is open, any time, any day
Don't let them wash your brain, don't walk away
Come back home, where your spirit can be free
Desmond, you will always be a part of me
Omo, see gobe, why they trying to play?
But truth is a fire, it light up the way
Don't be deceived by the tales that they spin
Come back to your father, come back to your kin
Desmond, my son, my blood, my heart
They try to pull us worlds apart
But my door is open, any time, any day
Don't let them wash your brain, don't walk away
Come back home, where your spirit can be free
Desmond, you will always be a part of me
Happy birthday, Desmond
I am still here, waiting on you
No dulling, just come home
My door is open, always, forever
(Music fades with talking drum solo)
